"My cup of tea" News - 23/7/07

Hacken's new album "My Cup Of Tea" is being released tomorrow, with a tracklisting of 11 songs, including "The Drive of Life" themesong.

Hacken expressed that in making this album, he didn't want to follow the style of his previous two concert hall albums, so chose a new style, co-operating with musicians he hadn't worked with before. The reason his song has an "unplugged" feeling ie because he wanted to change the way his voice came across in music. He also changed from recording at night to recording in the morning, and sat down to sing instead of standing up, to hold back his "daan tin", resulting in a softer, fragile sound.

In his album, fans can choose layers of instruments or even Hacken's voice to place together. THis gives them the choice of putting togheter different instruments from the same track, to give it a diffferent feel.

Soon-to-be-father Hacken seems to have a way with kids. Earlier, Hacken was doing a photoshoot for his new CD "My Cup Of Tea", when a child actor was being naughty and ran and jumped around the red wine collection in the high-class restaurant. Hacken immediately took the child actor aside and played with him to maintain peace, impressing other staff!

At his press conference for new album "My Cup Of Tea" , Hacken finally admitted wife Emily Lo's pregnancy, and the song "Little treasure" on teh album was for the baby! The lyrics were written by Hacken as a present, and the lyrics describe how excited he is to be a father.

Yesterday his record company spent $HK150,000 to hold a press conference at cyberport in HK. Hacken agreed to take photos next to a baby pram, and further expressed that "Little treasure" was written two months ago. He was asked if that meant Emily was 4, 5 months pregnant, and when he would be a father? Hacken replied: "Sometimes things don't have to be stated explicitly, the song has already showed my feelings, I don't want to say too much else, but this song wont be a song we use to plug". Reporters asked hwat Emily htought of hte song? Hacken replied the song was more like a children's song, and that Emily had already heard the whole album.

As for the baby's birth, would Hacken be like Lee Ka Shing and Cathy Tsui and give out photos to the media. Hacken said that he wished them well, but he wouldn't give out photos. He said that he had said all he wanted to say, and asked media to seperate business (his album launch) and his private life. He felt very happy at the moment. Yesterday his company also gave him a gold cup to congratulate Hacken, as the pre-orders of his new album had already exceeded $HK20,000!!
